i like it....would match my helmet hehehe

really/???? didn't even know about it - i coulnt have gone, but would of if i was free (and known about it!!!)

i've dona bit of polishing on my cars before - ie, for a rocker cover, start with 400 wet n dry, go to 800, 1200, then autosol

Double plus Twenty




not sure if this is a SA only saying - but the speed to take signposted corners - ie, its a 30km corner, hit it at 80km

i've also heard they can cause more damage due to all the shock transferring to teh frame instead of being absorbed by the panels, twisting/cracking frames???

if it's one of my mates i'll either rev their throttle or hit their kill switch

but failing that just a nod - if my visor is up or it's going to be a while i'll chat - i tried to convice one guy on a duke 999 that we should swap one day - bastart woldn't let me

hey i was on tv on ch 7 too

but that was for the bike thing on sunday

i was in syd last week and went to a place up in the blue mountains with a mate to check out some leather gear - it's custom made and they do the "race look" 2 pieces (ie, rossi replicas, etc) seem to be pretty good for the price (mate ordered a custom fit kwaka one, with slider provision, kevlar ...

hehehe they aren't really that tight, but still relatively restricting...thanks for the re: shower tip - thats what i was thinking, but when i was in reserves we had to wear out leather GP boots in a bucket of water for 2 hours and then walk 6 kms to mould and bed them in - so the idea was partially ...
